Advantages: Cleanses thoroughly but gently, whilst moisturising your skin

Disadvantages: Needs to be rinsed thoroughly

I normally struggle to find a cleanser which does not leave my skin feeling taught and dry, so I was tempted to try this when I saw the words 'moisture rich' and 'deep cleans without drying' on the tube. I am now on my third tube and intend to stick with it.

The texture is of a lovely thick cream, so it feels like it is adding moisture as you use it and it contained tiny micro beads which exfoliate as you wash. It is used on wet skin, massaged in then rinsed off and is perfect for those who love the fresh, clean feeling after cleansing. The only slightly negative thing I can say about it is that you have to make sure you rinse very thoroughly - more than once I have been in a rush and been left with the particles around my hairline!

The product says 'gentle enough to use every time you cleanse' which I would agree with. I use morning and night, and although I use a separate product to remove my mascara, it removes all traces of my other make up perfectly.

Stockists include Boots, Superdrug and Sainsbury.

A great deep cleansing product with the moisturising properties I would expect from a more expensive cleanser.

Summary: Lovely gentle product with great moisturising properties
